Flower Bouquet

Hello All!

Quilling presents endless possibilities with creating flowers. Simple shapes can be put together in the most creative ways to produce unimaginable varieties of charming flowers. So with petals made of the basic marquis shape, and the center made of a fringed roll, here are some fresh and lovely daisies!


I love the combination of white and maroon. No wonder the flowers ended up in those hues.

The stems are also quilled, by twisting two shades of intertwined green paper. I specifically wanted the bouquet to be three dimensional to make it as life-like as possible. Throw in a couple of just-bloomed buds, and the bouquet looks so real that it could attract bees!


The frame is 6" X 73/4" wooden shadow box, and the work is covered with acrylic.

Can you smell the blossoms?

Cheers!
Manasee
